Rare, Rarer, Rarest – Punk 45s
From the latest edition of Long Live Vinyl. A timely nod to Pripton. I guess he’s the reason this blog exists after all… Personally, I still think Dead Vandals was the better song, but was obviously less ‘punk’ in the strictest musical notation terms. Thank god it was the B Side at least.
